Switching
on
the
instrument
The roughness tester is switched on by pressing the key . The
ISR-S400, after a number of internal checks have been
conducted quickly, indicates on the display for a few
seconds before moving on to displaying the parameters. This
indicates to the operator that the instrument is ready to be used.
Switching-off, on the other hand, occurs automatically 40
seconds after the last operation effected. If a key is pressed
within the 40 seconds, the on time count is reset to zero and, from
that precise time, extended for another 40 seconds.
All
the
functions
activated
directly
from
the
keyboard
and
those
executed
from the
menus
are
only
accessible
after
the
instrument
has
been
switched
on.
The switching on is also gotten with the special external push-
button (optional) connected to the data output, or automatically,
or when press the keys on the printer, or when the software
Measurement Studio communicate with the roughness tester.
Note: when the ISR-S400 switches off at the precise moment
you try to press a key, you are advised to wait for ½ second
before switching the instrument on again.

main menu comprises 8 items but only four are displayed at a
time.

The pick-up:
The ISR-S400 incorporates the traverse unit mechanism and the
pick-up is fastened to the latter by means of the pick-up support
articulation. The measurements may be made either by
holding the ISR-S400 in your hand or fastened to a support or
simply set down (with additional supports for measurements on
cylinders and pick-up cover for use when measuring edges).
The pick-up support block permits rotation of the pick-up so that
measurements may be made inside throats (pick-up at 90°), as
shown in the figure below.
